NEW YORK, Nov. 19 (UPI) -- Singer-songwriter Barry Manilow says he will kick off his One Last Time! North American concert tour Feb. 11 in Omaha, Nebraska.

The tour will stop in Boston, Philadelphia, Atlanta, Pittsburgh, Chicago, Washington, Los Angeles and Seattle before it wraps June 17 -- his 72nd birthday -- at Barclays Center in his native Brooklyn.

"We're having a great time putting the show together," Manilow said in a statement Wednesday. "We hope to take everyone on an emotional roller coaster. I can't wait to see everyone dancing in the aisles."

After performing more than 400 concerts at the Las Vegas Hilton and Paris Las Vegas from 2005 through 2011, Manilow has limited his live stage performances. The music icon said his One Last Time! tour "is my way of thanking everyone for their years of support... one last time!"
